We first see Debbie played by Bianca Malinowski appear in Episode #2, acting like a well dressed Executive Assistant to John Bosworth Toby Huss. She is assigned to escort Cameron Howe out of the Engineering spaces and along the way she is established as the shows first airhead. After Cameron tells her BIOS stands for "Basic Input Output System", Donna replies "Oh like WordStar?"[1]

Debbie later appears sitting In a desk outside Joe MacMillan's office as if she is his secret arty, and is the only one of the staff that looks upon joe with sympathy instead of hatred after the IBM-Caused layoffs.

Time will tell how Debbie's character develops - she hasn't yet been assigned a last name by the writers, or a spot on AMC's website, but she stars in 7 of the 10 season one episodes, so we will be keeping an eye on Donnas character.
